FreedomWorks John Hallman Presents on Social Security to Crowd of 100

GREENSBORO, NC – On April 23rd, Florida Director John Hallman gave a PowerPoint presentation on Social Security Reform to the North Carolina Federation of Republican Women’s state convention in Greensboro, North Carolina. Over 100 people were in attendance.

Allen Page, the North Carolina Director asked John to give his presentation because of John’s experience from travelling around Florida over the last year and speaking to 50 different audiences about Social Security Reform. John’s PowerPoint is a comprehensive presentation, and has been used for workshop style education for those who support PRA’s and want to learn how to be an effective advocate.

John covered all the basics of how Social Security works today, how it has been changed over the years since Social Security’s inception. John then presented the four areas where the most objections to PRA’s are coming from: 1. Is there really a crisis? 2.What about the Trust Fund? 3.Isn’t the stock market risky? 4.We can’t afford the transition costs. After the presentation, many in the audience commented that they thought they knew the issue pretty well, but after hearing John’s presentation, they felt they had learned much more and would feel more comfortable now talking to others about PRA’s. John Hallman commented “there are still many misconceptions about Social Security Reform, and we have to continue to educate people with the facts if we are to have a chance to pass reform.”
